A SAVAGE ATTACK.

The Reveille says: The editor
of the Minneapolis Tribune de-
serves a sound drubbing at the
hands of the city's residents for
writing such a blasphemous and
scurrilous article upon President
Cleveland, and at the same time
intimating scandals against the
name of Mrs. Cleveland to create a
diversion of the peoples admiration
FROM her. His rash act has acted
like a boomerang, and instead of
sullying the name of the President
and his wife he has brought down
the condemnation of the citizens of
Minneapolis upon himself, and
blackened his career in the North
west. 1t is well enough to attack
the public life and acts of the Presi-
dent, but his personal affairs should
be held as sacred from the touch
of scandal, as any worthy citizen
living peaceful life surrounded by
his family, should be held in es-
TEEN. The Tribune said. among
other things:
at is hard to have respect for a
woman who would sell herself to SO
gross and repulslve a man as Grover
Cleveland, and one with a private
record so malodorous, for the bauble
of brief social ascendancy."
All decent men, irrespective of
party, have united in denouncing
the outrage which the President and
his wife have not stopped to notice.

JOHN sWINTOa,S LAST NUM-
RER.

The last number of John Swim
toms paper, established in 1888,
has reached us. In this number he
announces the suspension of the
paper and bids an affectionate fare
we'll to all who have stood by him.
1t is sad to see this noble hearted
big Drained man who threw his
time and fortune; at the feet of the
labor movement, after long strug-
gle to establish labor organ, COM
PEELED TO abandon the attempt and
retire, broken IN health and finan-
ces.
He gave his great talents and his
high enthusiasm to men who never
rose high enough to appreciate it
and who let him fail when a few
thousands would have saved him.
The labor movement lost the
heaviest gun it had when this pa
per expired and it is not likely that
its place will ever be filled. In
closing, Swinton pays this tribute
to his wife: 81 cannot let this pa
per fall into the abyss of oblivion
without making this first an0 last
reference to my wife, who, during
the past four years. has been to me
a true and tireless helpmeet, under
every circumstance, in ali the try
ing work that has fallen to my lot.
The All-Seeing Eye alone knows
the scope and depth OF these few
wcrds.'

cities spring up as if by magic, for

be when tins Railroad reacht

the place of sloth and inactivity,
andian era Of prosperity will come
to New Mexico, never before

people, will soon ill up her waste

ahmony where there is any in
sight. But the opposite seems to
be growing in fashion of late, and
has even inva led our own Terri
tory and County. At the last
term of court, a couple whose uni
ted assets were scarcely enough to
pay a cheap lawyer to present
their cases IN court, sought the
privilege of being complainant, and
sought the officers of the court to
give him or her the victory. A
similar case or cases, we under
stand, will grace the docket of the
district court, IN and for Lincoln
County, at the coming term.

Hence, the courts should be slow
to grant divorces, only answering
prayers for such, where the con.

Punishment, of course, should be

our solons have made no such pro-

Grover Cleveland has proven
himself the most abieCt coward of
the age. He was afraid to attend
Hendricks funeral for fear some
one would hurt him. He had ac-
cepted an invitation to attend re-
union at Richmond, but was afraid
to have his wife meet Miss Winnie
Davis for fear of what the papers
of the North would say, and there
fore left Mrs. Cleveland at home.
He was afraid OF newspaper criti-
cisms and squealed like whipped
schoolboy, crying back when he
got at safe distance, "Ghoulish
Glee etc" When he got married
he dragged his bride through a
back alley because he was afraid to
meet the crowd in front who were
anxious to congratulate him.
When he gave his order for the re-
turn of the rebel flags he retracted
like cringing coward from before
Governor Foraker's Injunction.
When a few " unbalanced persons
threatened him personal violence,
if he attended the Encampment at
st. Louis he declined to 60, " be-
cause of their wantOn and cruel at
tacks."

GOD VS.. BLATHERSKITES.

Last Sabbath on perusing our
Bible, and reading the 21st verse
of the 5th chapter af Deutoron-
omy, our mind diverted to Nc
Glynn and George, the one an un-
trocked priest, and the other an
unbalanced layman. That OH read
ing the Holy Book, these person.
oges should appear between the
lines may seem singular, but the
verse indicated reads:
Neither shalt thou desire thy
neighbours wife, neither shalt thou
covet thy neighbor's hOrSe, his field,
or his man-servant, his OK, or his
ass, or anything that is thy neigh.
boris"
Now the ex-reverend McGlynn,
and his echo, George, says that
the right of possession to land
comes but from God, and cannot
be acquired Of men save on deeds
given him by God-that all land
records should be destroyed, and
land and all other properties be di
vided equally between Gods chill
dren, of whom they are two pro
nonnced types.
But God said, :" In the sweat ot
thy face shalt thou eat bread,
whereas McGlynn and George,
sweat but the lower portion ot
their faces, that portion which
Sampson utilized in Staying the
Philistines.
The couple named have bandeC
themselves to overthrow the law o
God and country. The quotation
made is not the only reference
made to land as property, nor i:
there but one law upon our statute
books establishing the right in
man to hold property, and pro
viding safeguards to property own
ers. The idea is as old as the
world, and will last while the
world does. The vaporings o

MATRIMONY-DIVORCE.

with the number of divorce cases
which occupythe time and attention
of the courts. And it is sometimes
amusing to note the reasons and
pretences upon which applications
for legal separation are based.
Sometimes the misfitted one de-
clares that he or she was not ac-
uualnted with the dominant traits
OF character which so largely and
disagreeably developed i'll the for
lite or until death doth part part
ners, until the matrimonial harness
become calling, showing what need
ed no proof beyond observation,
that men and women enter lite
bonds with as little thought and
consideration as they would en-
ploy in determining to go to lee
ture or fishing excursion.
Then the number of religious
cranks involved is prodlgious.
! Many of the parties who fly to the
courts tor redress of grievances dc
not appear to catch on to religion
until they have plunged into the
connubial cauldron and had good
scald ; then they seem to reflect
on their latter end, and feel that
heaven is beyond their reach while
handicapped in the race by the
partner who will uot travel the
same gait, or in the same roadway
with him or herself.
Then we find mothers in-laws, or
other relatives, blood or through
marriage, whose ambition it should
be to see the mated ones travel
gently in the same harness, firing
the heat of the susceptible with
jealousy or other unworthy ele
ments, until from turret to toun-
dation stone of domestic life is
like unto lava bed, breathing
nothing but disaster and hellish
lite.
The papers have recently given
edge to peculiar interest through
the ventilation of domestic troub
les involving the household of Ex-
Governor Gilpin OF Colorado. -
Both he Governor and his wife
sought a divorce, she on the film
siest preteXts, unworthy serious
consideration, and he on grounds
which appealed to the court to the
extent Of a hearing and answering
Of his prayers tor dissolution OF
| his marital bonds. She was a YER
table tigress. She would force
him to attend prayers in his home
parlor, on which occasions, she and
her daughter would on their knees,
inform God what a monster the
old Governor was, and pray that
he would please remove him from
association with them--take him
to glory or consign him to perdi
ton, they didn't care a contlnen-
tai winch, so long as he was re-
moved. This made the old gen
tleman's knees tired, and he finally
told them he would see them i'll
Tophet before he would pray with
them again. Their supplications
were not interesting TO him, indeed
they were distasteful. The court
sjmpathised with the subject OF
wife and step-daughter's prayers,
and gave him his exemption pa
pers.

wife each apply for legal separa
ton. Asa rule, the party flying

There is now plan on foot to
